Isaiah 29:1 Woe1945 to Ariel,740 to Ariel,740 the city7151{Or, oh Ariel, that is the lion of God. Or, of the city}where David1732 dwelt!2583 add5595 ye year8141 to year;8141 let them kill5362{Heb. out of the heads} sacrifices.22822 Yet I will distress6693 Ariel,740 and there shall be heaviness8386 and sorrow:592 and it shall be unto me as Ariel.7403 And I will camp2583 against thee round about,1754 and will lay siege6696 against thee with a mount,4674 and I will raise6965 forts4694 against thee.
4 And thou shalt be brought down,8213and shalt speak1696 out of the ground,776 and thy speech565 shall be low7817 out of the dust,6083 and thy voice6963 shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit,178 out of the ground,776 and thy speech565 shall whisper6850{Heb. peep or chirp} out of the dust.60835 Moreover the multitude1995 of thy strangers2114 shall be like small1851 dust,80 and the multitude1995 of the terrible ones6184shallbe as chaff4671 that passeth away:5674 yea, it shall be at an instant6621 suddenly.65976 Thou shalt be visited6485 of the LORD3068 of hosts6635 with thunder,7482 and with earthquake,7494 and great1419 noise,6963 with storm5492 and tempest,5591 and the flame3851 of devouring398 fire.784
Isaiah 29:7 And the multitude1995 of all the nations1471 that fight6633 against Ariel,740 even all that fight6638 against her and her munition,4685 and that distress6693 her, shall be as a dream2472 of a night3915 vision.23778 It shall even be as when an hungry7457man dreameth,2492 and, behold, he eateth;398 but he awaketh,6974 and his soul5315 is empty:7386 or as when834 a thirsty man6771 dreameth,2492 and, behold, he drinketh;8354 but he awaketh,6974 and, behold, heis faint,5889 and his soul5315 hath appetite:8264 so shall the multitude1995 of all the nations1471 be, that fight6633 against mount2022 Zion.6726
Isaiah 29:9 Stay4102 yourselves, and wonder;8539 cry ye out,8173 and cry:8173{Or, take your pleasure and riot} they are drunken,7937 but not with wine;3196 they stagger,5128 but not with strong drink.794110 For the LORD3068 hath poured out5258 upon you the spirit7307 of deep sleep,8639 and hath closed6105 your eyes:5869 the prophets5030 and your rulers,7218{Heb. heads} the seers2374 hath he covered.368011 And the vision2380 of all is become unto you as the words1697 of a book5612{Or, letter} that is sealed,2856 which men deliver5414 to one that is learned,3045 saying,559 Read7121 this, I pray thee: and he saith,559 I cannot;3201 for it is sealed:285612 And the book5612 is delivered5414 to him that is not learned,30455612 saying,559 Read7121 this, I pray thee: and he saith,559 I am not learned.3045
Isaiah 29:13 Wherefore the Lord136 said,559 Forasmuch3282 as this people5971 draw near5066me with their mouth,6310 and with their lips8193 do honour3513 me, but have removed73682794 their heart3820 far7368 from me, and their fear3374 toward me is taught3925 by the precept4687 of men:58214 Therefore, behold, I will proceed3254{Heb. I will add} to do a marvellous work6381 among this people,5971even a marvellous work6381 and a wonder:6382 for the wisdom2451 of their wise2450men shall perish,6 and the understanding998 of their prudent995men shall be hid.5641
Isaiah 29:15 Woe1945 unto them that seek deep6009 to hide5641 their counsel6098 from the LORD,3068 and their works4639 are in the dark,4285 and they say,559 Who seeth7200 us? and who knoweth3045 us?
16 Surely your turning of things upside down2017 shall be esteemed2803 as the potter's3335 clay:2563 for shall the work4639 say559 of him that made6213 it, He made6213 me not? or shall the thing framed3336 say559 of him that framed3335 it, He had no understanding?99517Is it not yet a very4213 little while,4592 and Lebanon3844 shall be turned7725 into a fruitful field,3759 and the fruitful field3759 shall be esteemed2803 as a forest?3293
Isaiah 29:18 And in that day3117 shall the deaf2795 hear8085 the words1697 of the book,5612 and the eyes5869 of the blind5787 shall see7200 out of obscurity,652 and out of darkness.282219 The meek6035 also shall increase3254{Heb. shall add}their joy8057 in the LORD,3068 and the poor34 among men120 shall rejoice1523 in the Holy One6918 of Israel.347820 For the terrible one6184 is brought to nought,656 and the scorner3887 is consumed,3615 and all that watch8245 for iniquity205 are cut off:377221 That make a man120 an offender2398 for a word,1697 and lay a snare6983 for him that reproveth3198 in the gate,8179 and turn aside5186 the just6662 for a thing of nought.841422 Therefore thus saith559 the LORD,3068 who redeemed6299 Abraham,85 concerning the house1004 of Jacob,3290 Jacob3290 shall not now be ashamed,954 neither shall his face6440 now wax pale.235723 But when he seeth7200 his children,3206 the work4639 of mine hands,3027 in the midst7130 of him, they shall sanctify6942 my name,8034 and sanctify6942 the Holy One6918 of Jacob,3290 and shall fear6206 the God430 of Israel.347824 They also that erred8582 in spirit7307 shall come3045 to understanding,998{Heb. shall know understanding} and they that murmured7279 shall learn3925 doctrine.3948
